MID-LEVEL RIDGING DOMINATES OVER TEXAS FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND AS
DRIER AIR FILTERS IN THE LOW LEVELS DUE TO HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDING
INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTHEAST. THIS DRIER AIR WILL BRING
DEWPOINTS INTO THE MID AND LOW 50S FOR MANY LOCATIONS FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY WHICH WILL AID IN SOME LOWER MORNING TEMPERATURES IN THE
50S TO MID 60S. HIGHS WILL STILL BE ON THE WARM SIDE EACH AFTERNOON.
THERE IS SOME MODEL UNCERTAINTY IF THE UPPER RIDGE SHIFTS EAST OR
STAYS OVERHEAD OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS EARLY NEXT WEEK, BUT EITHER
WAY IT DOES LOOK LIKE INCREASED LOW LEVEL MOISTURE GRADUALLY RETURNS
TO THE AREA INCREASING LOW TEMPERATURES NEXT WEEK. HIGHS CONTINUE TO
STAY STAGNANT FROM THE UPPER 80S TO LOW OR MID 90S.
